Good point. Here for some reason the pedestrian light is 15 second even if the traffic is going to be flowing in that direction for 45 sec. You can hit the button and it'll start counting down again.

I've heard of many cases in Québec, where if the crime is judged severe enough, a 16-17 yo would end up being treated as an adult instead of going through juvenile courts.

Also, repeating the same ad over and over is pretty annoying. If you binge watch a series on Hulu Plus, you'll get the same ad at least twice per episode, for every 24 min episode. I can recite some of them by heart, with the same intonation.

There are potential big players but American companies come and buy them out when they get competitive size: Softimage, Discreet, Maya, ATI, Matrox, ...
Matrox didn't get acquired but kinda changed their target markets.

It does puzzle me that they also require monthly pass user to tag off. I paid for a 1-3 pass, you shouldn't need me to tag at all!

You cannot buy tickets on the train, that's another issue with Caltrain. See that hourly train coming? Don't even think about catching it if you don't already have a ticket. You'll have missed it by the time you get your ticket.
